Advice needed on divorce

I am separated from my Husband since last 8 months. I have a 4 years old son. Who is with me. My reason for leaving him was infidelity. He cheated on me continously inspite of knowing that his affair was in my knowledge. I have been told that if I have any problem I can take a decision and leave. I was under depression and suffered this for 5 months. I used to cry everyday at home and office. This problem got started spreading in my office, his office because I shared it with my friends. My husband was very angry on me for this. But continued his affair. Even more. Finally when I couldn't bear this I told him that I will leave and booked tickets for my parents house. He wanted me to give mutual divorce before leaving. But I again begged him to not let me go. But he didn't agree. I left home and said he has to wait for mutual divorce. My parents also met his parents last month and tried to resolve the matter. But they are also against me. Now they want mutual divorce. I don't want to force them anymore. Although I feel my husband is disturbed emotionally. But things got so worse that he feels that it is better we should move on. They are not ready to give my jewellery or anything.Please advice what are my legal rights if I go for mutual divorce. I am also working currently.

You can claim alimony if you want and your jewellary. If you are earning well then also you can claim maintainance for your son. Your husband is liable to provide maintainance for you son till he attains 18 years of age.
